Yes. Everyone else was well mannered and curtious except guy from McDonald's..maybe he was having a bad day 😬...love from Ireland..we certainly don't have as many takeaways over here. Although we have a McDonald's..☘️💗
Congratulations Mark and the brother in law. Sending positive thoughts for Mark to get a moose. I know it's a blessing. Food prices are out of this world. I don't know how families can get by in these times. I eat usually once a day. Food isn't that important to me and I get busy and I have went two or three days without eating and I have to remind myself to eat. My dad was the same way. If I have to choose a meal it would be breakfast. Biscuits and gravy or two eggs over medium with bacon or sausage and an English muffin or toast. I drink water with grape propel in it or my go to Coca Cola. I know your boys and I think it's Bennett that likes to make ice cream BUT if you ever see Tillamook ice cream it is by far the best ice cream sold in stores. They also have make cheese and butter. Their cheese is great too! They have a you tube channel showing how their factory operates. The ice cream is my guilty pleasure. The strawberry, vanilla and peach are my go to flavor. I don't care for chocolate of any kind.
Thank you for all the time you put into filming, editing and posting these daily videos. I know they took a lot of time while being the sole adult this week. Enjoy going back to your regular schedule.
Little violet and Every look alike although she does look more like her mama.🥰sooo precious. You have a wonderful loving family. Blessings to you all.🙏💐
You have such a beautiful family! Little Everett is adorable!!! Love his ways! Too cute! You are an amazing mama and I wish you and yours the best of blessings!
It was nice seeing the kids at different ages .That was a fun time. Violet did pretty good being in the car for so long . Prayers 🙏 and Love 🤟 From Ginger
No chick-fila is a bummer! But Costco sells the Bare chicken that taste identical, frozen waffle fries and soft brioche buns are everywhere and Walmart sells the chick-fila sauce 👍 easy to replicate at home!
Loved this one…. Everett at 4, Miss Violet getting on down with Weston. Lauren you really keep us involved and entertained ❤️ And a moose too Fingers crossed another one
Two basic cheese and bean burritos is a great fast food snack while running around kids after school and early evening to activities. Not e pensive and does the job. 👍🏻
It’s so neat to see the older videos of the boys. Everett is so grown up now…Wow! Yes it is so expensive to eat out! It’s just my Mother (87) and I. Mom works part time and I work full time so we tend to eat out on the days she works and eat at home the days she doesn’t work. We are amazed how much groceries prices have gone up in WV. Thank you again for sharing your family. Yeah on the Moose!!!
Lauren, nothing is cheap now adays!! That was a fun evening out with everyone. Happy to hear they got a Moose...yes ma'am. Miss Violet looks so much like Everett . Thanks for sharing. See you tomorrow!!
I never heard of fast food restaurants being out of supplies. It must be an Alaska thing. Thanks for sharing another day in the life of the Hamm’s. Congrats on the Moose kill!
As my adult son recently said, fast food has now become luxury food. You can no longer afford to take a family out to eat. I purchased a Chick-fil-a salad yesterday and it was $10.50. Also the food isn't really that good especially at McDonald's after it sits under those heat lamps. Congrats on the moose; hope another one is coming soon!
I remember watching your grocery hauls and being shocked at the prices, thinking I could never afford to live in AK, so my wish to do so would forever remain a wish...BUTTT after watching this video I can say the prices in my VA Beach, VA area are about the same as AK now!! So I told my husband I was ready to make the move there!! Prices for just about everything here shocks me, idk how we're all doing it... it's sad and infuriating!!! However, I love your videos. Thank you for sharing ❤❤❤ PS, lil Miss Violet is growing like a weed!! Time is such a thief!! 😮😂
Awe I live in Eagle River, too! I always have Taco Bell with me when I’m in that McDonald’s drive thru because my kids love the happy meals & I always want a Baja blast lol
I would love to see you Make the Orange Chicken and Stemmed Vegetables with Rice Sometime Lauren 😊 and Thank you for Sharing… Me and my Daughter we don’t eat out as much We Cook at home and we Use our Air Fryer and we Love It❤❤❤
Fun video! It's definitely gone up each year. But I think comparing to a regular sit down restaurant, if you got 4 meals, 4 drinks and 4 desserts, it would've been minimum $100, probably more with all the extras, so fast food is still cheaper. But of course, if you're just comparing to cooking at home, home cooking will always win! 😊
So glad the family, got a moose, even to share. So exciting. Glad the kids we're able to get some fast food. Lauren you, did an amazing job with all of the kids this week. Really enjoyed all of your videos. Can I have your address. I have miss placed it. Prayers for another moose.
Poppy's spicy chicken thighs. Yum. It's early am & you made me hungry! & l never eat fast food! Haha! Nurse Judi in Scottsdale AZ and E Minister ✨️ 🙏🏻 God bless you all and many prayers 🙏🏻
It used to be a little cheaper to go to fast food, but these days it cost the same as a decent sit down restaurant, for my family. It's crazy!! And omg little Everette!!! Soooo cute!!! ❤
That was a fun roadtrip for food !! What a versatile dinner and a good way to sample on different dishes. Some of the restaurants are making the items a little smaller to cut cost but they keep the same prices and others up their prices either way. Like the Big Mac for instance, much smaller, same prices. I'm happy to hear that Mark and Ben's hard work and patience paid off with the moose they have ❤
We get subway coupons in the mail sometimes but it's still cheaper to buy our own bread 🍞 and toppings it's crazy we don't eat out as much as we used to either
The prices all went up and so has Everett's love for food! 😂 The boys were playing in the park but he was still munching on his fries! Such a cutie! Thanks for sharing your family with us. ❤
I have the taco bell app on my phone. You get online exclusive menu items. Much cheaper to order and prepay and pull up and give them your name. A meal for 2 includes 8 items for $12.50
Our “eating out” these days is just the costco take out pizzas for 9.99. Everything else is out of control. Especially for a family it’s crazy. Love to all those mommas out there making it work! ❤
Our prices out here in Oregon are about the same as yours. The one thing I have noticed is McDonald’s hamburgers, fish sandwich, etc. are almost the size of sliders now for such a high price. I Enjoy your videos.
It's EXPENSIVE EVERYWHERE, I'm from NJ, however, been in E TN (stuck from the hurricane, which tore up a few States), & it's hella mucho dinero here as well (in fact prices are the same as NJ) I NEVER get into Politics but something needs to change fast)
So Jersey mikes in Alaska is about $3 more for a giant sub then it is in NJ. However not all delis are the same and with Jersey mikes you get a sandwich loaded with meat and toppings.
Not to depress anyone (and to definitely tell my age) but in mid-1970's I would get 2 burgers, a small fry and a small drink from McDonald's for about $1!
depressed? heck no. You can go back 13 years ago and where I am, DQ sold $1 burgers and that was a steal. You could feed 20 people for $20. So I mean, times change but not that fast sometimes.
It was nice seeing your prices in Alaska. Our prices for fast food here in Nova Scotia is a lot higher. Hubby and I got 2 burger meals with frys and a drink from A&W two months ago the price was $42.00. Outrageous. We don't eat out often at fast foods. Restaurants are cheaper and better meals here. Congratulations on the moose. 👍🇨🇦
I think that it is a great thing to have your boys or kids in general (and a whole bunch of D.A.M.E DOGS, please excuse my lanuage this is pasted personal) active in sports. It is good for children to be around other kids so that they can learn to interact with others to build good relationships and leadership. Kids should not be inside ALL the time. Everyone needs to be active in things of their own interest. Kudos to Laura super mom! I understand juggling life kids activities, school and life.
Thank you Lauren for these wonderful videos. I looked forward to seeing one every day and so happy you’re going to have some moose meat. Have a great weekend with your sweet family sending my love from Michigan!!
Ok, just been to McDonald’s today got their meal deal with medium fries and drink with a chicken mayo and 4 nuggets for £5. Plus a double cheeseburger for £2.29 and 3 mozzarella dippers for £2.19. Plus 12p for sugar tax on soft drinks too.
I'm so glad you guys finally got a moose that's awesome and next time you're at Taco Bell try the chicken or beef protein bowl they are so good in Carl's Junior here in the States has an awesome tasting mushroom swiss cheese sandwich lots of love to your family and always in my prayers
We visited Alaska when my son was in the army. The food prices were crazy!! I was so glad to get back to my home of panhandle, Texas. But Alska is so beautiful!!
The guy that served you at McDonald's was so happy 😂😂
Yes. Everyone else was well mannered and curtious except guy from McDonald's..maybe he was having a bad day 😬...love from Ireland..we certainly don't have as many takeaways over here. Although we have a McDonald's..☘️💗
If he dragged out his speech any slower you could of fell asleep lol
Yep ray of sunshine he was …. Not 🤣
I live 45 minutes from a major city in Australia and I have to travel 20 minutes to get to a chain takeout so you have an abundance of choice lol
Ahaha i said almost the same thing except you're nicer😂😂😂😂
The little boy in the front seat chowing down on Chinese food like he hadn't eaten for days made me laugh!
might be weston yes always she said they were eating kinda late boys eat like that eaten for days
It was Bennett
That’s the way I’ve always seen Weston eat.
All guys big and small I know eat like that
@@nancyfarkas3592 ha!
Fiery Spite is a menu item that is supposed to be at Burger King
Love the smile on your momma face looking back on older video when your son was talking 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤
I know it was chaotic but great memories! Congrats on the meat.
Fun video to watch!! I appreciate the daily videos so much!
Congratulations on getting a moose 🫎!
Been really enjoying all this week’s video.
So glad you guys have a moose this year, but I’m gonna miss your daily videos, I enjoy watching them. Have wonderful rest of the weekend 😊

It was nice seeing the kids at different ages .That was a fun time. Violet did pretty good being in the car for so long .
Prayers 🙏 and Love 🤟 From Ginger
No chick-fila is a bummer! But Costco sells the Bare chicken that taste identical, frozen waffle fries and soft brioche buns are everywhere and Walmart sells the chick-fila sauce 👍 easy to replicate at home!
Aww I get to see you guys again, I feel honored. Violet is such a pure joy ❤❤
It was fun and your kids are amazing sharing …👏🇦🇺🦋💜

Love the price comparison you did. Puts things in perspective
Yay pt6 you are Amazing Lauren. Thank you for your wonderful video's. Kindest thoughts from Australia
What a fun video!! You have now made me hungry for Panda Express!!! Yay and Praise God for the moose!
Loved this one…. Everett at 4, Miss Violet getting on down with Weston. Lauren you really keep us involved and entertained ❤️ And a moose too Fingers crossed another one
Yay to part 6, thank you Lauren..I love seeing how different prices are and the same too
Little Everett is sooo adorable! He still is!
Such a fun video! Thanks 🙂
I love nacho fries, love TB in general.
Thanks for sharing. My boys loved seeing Violet & comparing her to their baby brother
I love Taco Bell. I don't go to fast food restaurants very often, but when I do, I like Taco Bell.
I feel like it’s my secret shame 😂 but I seriously love it
Two basic cheese and bean burritos is a great fast food snack while running around kids after school and early evening to activities. Not e pensive and does the job. 👍🏻
What a nice diversion from the normal routine. You all enjoyed the variety and it was nice to see what’s available in Eagle River. 🙏🏻
Your sons killin me😂 Moms talking to her camera >>>Again😂
I Loved the simple "Snap of the fingers" to calm everyone down!!! 😂❤ They know, if Mama snaps the fingers to calm down. @This Alaska Life.
Every moms code single lol
It’s so neat to see the older videos of the boys. Everett is so grown up now…Wow! Yes it is so expensive to eat out! It’s just my Mother (87) and I.

As my adult son recently said, fast food has now become luxury food. You can no longer afford to take a family out to eat. I purchased a Chick-fil-a salad yesterday and it was $10.50. Also the food isn't really that good especially at McDonald's after it sits under those heat lamps.
Congrats on the moose; hope another one is coming soon!
Best thing about Chick Fil A salad is they put plenty of fruit in the Market one, no on else does that, even Panera is skimping now.
Good morning Beautiful Family. ❤ Blessings and have a Wonderful Weekend Lauren and Family. 🙏❤🍁🌻
Hi brilliant vlog loved this, so glad Mark had a moose great news 👍👍😊🏴
I love watching you're videos! My parents used to live in Eagle River and we lived in Wasilla for 8 years.
Congratulations on the moose. You're timing of going out to dinner was perfect. Kind of a celebration 🎉😊
Lauren, thank you for sharing each day while Mark was gone ❤❤
I remember watching your grocery hauls and being shocked at the prices, thinking I could never afford to live in AK, so my wish to do so would forever remain a wish...BUTTT after watching this video I can say the prices in my VA Beach, VA area are about the same as AK now!! So I told my husband I was ready to make the move there!! Prices for just about everything here shocks me, idk how we're all doing it... it's sad and infuriating!!! However, I love your videos.

What a great week! I have enjoyed these vlogs so much, thank you for sharing with us ☺♥

I’m in Fremont California. Chilis has an amazing special going. And it’s cheaper than McDonald’s
Gotta try Panda Express next week when I’m in Anchorage
Hi from Kingwood, I love watching your videos. You are such a fun mom. Makes me miss living in Alaska, Violet is the cutest
Yay Kingwood! Love the connection of Kingwood and Alaska!
Greetings from Key West Florida.
The Cantina bowl is great! I usually take out the beans and rice...very tasty!
Yay a moose!! Aww little Everett!! He's grown up so much. Eating out even here is so expensive 😊😊😊
Eating in general is expensive . Let alone paying someone else to make it cook it 😂
@debbiebousquet5677 true words there!!
Hubby needs to get another moose for all those hungry kids!
@2:30 made me want kids ! The sibling love is everything ! Wouldn't be here today if it weren't for my older sisters !
I saw Burger King has a spicy Sprite i think
So glad the family, got a moose, even to share. So exciting.
Glad the kids we're able to get some fast food.
Lauren you, did an amazing job with all of the kids this week. Really enjoyed all of your videos.
Can I have your address. I have miss placed it.
Prayers for another moose.

All I know is that I’m so hungry now ! Enjoyed the video thanks 😊
Poppy's spicy chicken thighs. Yum. It's early am & you made me hungry! & l never eat fast food! Haha! Nurse Judi in Scottsdale AZ and E Minister ✨️ 🙏🏻 God bless you all and many prayers 🙏🏻
I think the one sat at the back drew tje short straw as the front seems to get firstt dibs
You went through every fast food drive through in eagle river Alaska except the pizza places
❤ little Everett is just so adorable. 😋🥰
It used to be a little cheaper to go to fast food, but these days it cost the same as a decent sit down restaurant, for my family. It's crazy!! And omg little Everette!!! Soooo cute!!! ❤

Fun thing to do! Like you said….stressful with kids that are hungry! Violet was a champ! Yay 🫎🫎🫎!
We get subway coupons in the mail sometimes but it's still cheaper to buy our own bread 🍞 and toppings it's crazy we don't eat out as much as we used to either
The prices all went up and so has Everett's love for food! 😂 The boys were playing in the park but he was still munching on his fries! Such a cutie! Thanks for sharing your family with us. ❤

Yes...I never eat out without using their apps

Yep gotta love shrinkflation 🤦🏻♀️
Hello to all like the videos take care all.the prices are changing every year or months.thanks.glad your husband and friends got the moose.❤😊🙏🙏❤🐱
It's EXPENSIVE EVERYWHERE, I'm from NJ, however, been in E TN (stuck from the hurricane, which tore up a few States), & it's hella mucho dinero here as well (in fact prices are the same as NJ) I NEVER get into Politics but something needs to change fast)
Glad you got a moose.
Violet certainly knows the camera lol 😂
At McDonald's this year, you got a more expensive sandwich. A quarter pounder deluxe is more expensive that a big mac. That's why it cost alot more.
Thanks! I did get a quarter pounder deluxe one other time. I know it’s not a perfect comparison but still fun.
Great week of videos. Very enjoyable. Thanks
Geez Lauren… you definitely are on the ball with things LOL…. Congrats on the Moose hunt being successful….Bless❤
So Jersey mikes in Alaska is about $3 more for a giant sub then it is in NJ. However not all delis are the same and with Jersey mikes you get a sandwich loaded with meat and toppings.
Congratulations on getting a moose! Everything is so expensive, especially fast food! Hope Mark gets a moose!

Vancouver is 3rd most unaffordable place to live in the world so prices never surprise me.

Thank you Lauren for these wonderful videos. I looked forward to seeing one every day and so happy you’re going to have some moose meat. Have a great weekend with your sweet family sending my love from Michigan!!
Those green Vans are such a find. I'm still not over them
Ok, just been to McDonald’s today got their meal deal with medium fries and drink with a chicken mayo and 4 nuggets for £5. Plus a double cheeseburger for £2.29 and 3 mozzarella dippers for £2.19. Plus 12p for sugar tax on soft drinks too.
Wow! Everything is so much more expensive in Alaska. The same meal at Taco Bell here in Ohio is only $7.00. We like them all except Arby’s tho.
You all are such a fun family, i think baby Violet will be teething soon.
When we do go out to eat in our area we aim more for mom & pop places and watch for bargain nights.. BOGO burger basket Mondays, etc.
I'm so glad you guys finally got a moose that's awesome and next time you're at Taco Bell try the chicken or beef protein bowl they are so good in Carl's Junior here in the States has an awesome tasting mushroom swiss cheese sandwich lots of love to your family and always in my prayers
Carls out of chicken 😆 Such an Alaskan (and common) problem up here. Our restaurants and stores are all out of things SO often, aren't they?
Yes! One time Arby’s had no roast beef… lol!
Good variety of fast food places. In our immediate area we have 2 McDs, a Taco Bell, Burger King, Wendys and KFC.
Your McDonald's order was a different burger meal as well. You got a Quater Pounder Deluxe this time a big Mac last time .
Yep, you’re right
He is adorable
Enjoy watching your videos congrats on Mark catching a moose.
We visited Alaska when my son was in the army. The food prices were crazy!! I was so glad to get back to my home of panhandle, Texas. But Alska is so beautiful!!
KFC is my favorite the OG of chicken takeout an Popeyes is pretty good too but Bojangles is my favorite their biscuits to dy for. ❤😂
Never normally comment, but I love seeing all the fast food options in Alaska ☺️
Good morning ☀️ and happy Saturday great video thanks for sharing congratulations on the moose 🫎
P.S. Does Eagle River/Anchorage have traditional diners?
We have some Mexican places and a few cafes.
Absolutely adore your family.
You are so kind! Thanks for watching
That’s fab news about the moose 🫎, that was very interesting about the fast food prices. ❤🇬🇧
Our prices in Australia have gone up far more in the last two years in comparison to what Alaska has 🤷🏻♀️
